If You See Something, Say Something


The bystander in the bully event triad must be knowledgeable enough to recognize unethical bully-type communication, coercion, and suspicious activity when working in cultures where the workplace or educational setting is unhealthy. Choosing sides and being transparent after the fact is ineffective, especially if the bully's unethical behavior could have been reported and diverted. "If You See Something, Say Something" is a phrase used by the Department of Homeland Security to raise awareness of foreign and domestic terrorism. But it's also good advice for preventing and maintaining bully triad behaviors, which can be extraordinarily costly and increase the risk of doing business.
